Application Error

[Guest]

When my PC boots up, I get an Application Error and I have no idea what it is
or how to correct the problem. The error says"svchost.exe Application Error/
The instruction at"0x7c918fea" referenced memory at "0x00000010". The memory
could not be written. Then it has two buttons to click, either"ok" to
terminate the program or "cancel" to debug the program. The only thing I know
is NOT to click cancel I always just terminate the program. Anyone have any
idea or help to offer would be greatly appreciated!

Please check Event Viewer for Warning / Error Reports in the System and
Application logs and post copies.

You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Administrative Tools, and
Event Viewer. When researching the meaning of the error, information
regarding Event ID, Source and Description are important.

HOW TO: View and Manage Event Logs in Event Viewer in Windows XP

A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and double click
on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a button
resembling two pages. Double click the button and close Event Viewer. Now
start your message (email) and do a paste into the body of the message. This
will paste the info from the Event Viewer Error Report complete with links
into the message. Make sure this is the first paste after exiting from Event
Viewer.
